Are you succeeding outwardly while failing inwardly? It is easy to lead a church or mentor others while harbouring a restless, offended heart that resents God's mercy. In this powerful lesson on Jonah Chapter 4, Rev Paul Jeyachandran challenges Christian leaders to examine the "three movements of the heart"—from being offended and obstructed to becoming fully opened and offered to God. By addressing primal wounds and the cynicism that darkens the mind, this sermon provides essential training for pastors and leaders seeking genuine spiritual growth. Learn to use the "four T's" of biblical narrative—Tone, Tension, Twist, and Theology—to find transformative truth in scripture. Don't let an overcrowded soul or hidden offence paralyse your will. Dive into this study to ensure your core is as correct as your creed and experience the healing power of God's restorative questions today.#ChristianLeadership #JonahSermon #PastorTraining #ChurchGrowth #InnerHealing #BiblicalTheology #IDMCMovement #SpiritualGrowth #RevPaulJeyachandran
This week Pastor Kevin continues in our series Jonah., specifically at Jonah Chapter 3. God wants us to be part of his mission. Join us in listening to how turning to God can change your life for eternity.
When life quietly revolves around our own comfort, even small disruptions can expose what our hearts are really centred on. This final message in our Jonah series sits in chapter 4, where Jonah's anger over a plant is held up against God's compassion for an entire city. As we hear God ask, “Is it right for you to be angry?”, we are invited to let the Spirit realign our telos from personal comfort to God's kingdom purpose and His heart for people.Gateway Baptist Church meets across six locations in South-East Queensland and also online.For over 90 years, we've been committed to guiding people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus.Learn more about us at https://gatewaybaptist.com.au
Preacher: The Rev. Dr. Tyler Wigg-Stevenson Bible Passage: Jonah 4:1-11 Sermon Series: Jonah
When sharing your faith feels intimidating, and you're tempted to think God only uses “spiritual experts,” Jonah 3 offers a different picture. In this message, we see how God takes Jonah's reluctant five-word sermon and sparks revival in Nineveh, not because Jonah is impressive but because God is gracious and already at work. We're invited to lay down our “not me, not them, not now” excuses and step into simple acts of obedience, trusting that God can use even small words to join His big mission.Gateway Baptist Church meets across six locations in South-East Queensland and also online.For over 90 years, we've been committed to guiding people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus.Learn more about us at https://gatewaybaptist.com.au
When it feels like you're in the belly of the fish, Jonah 2 reminds us that we can still come to God in prayer. In this message, we see that even in the lowest places, God hears us. And while we may not see the miraculous with our eyes straight away, prayer often changes our posture before it changes our circumstances. Jonah's cry from the depths reminds us of God's grace that meets us right where we are.Gateway Baptist Church meets across six locations in South-East Queensland and also online.For over 90 years, we've been committed to guiding people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus.Learn more about us at https://gatewaybaptist.com.au

Jonah part 18. Looking at Jonah Chapter 4 verse 1. How does this verse have to do with the word "evil," when the English word "evil" is nowhere in there?
Jonah Part 17. Looking at Jonah Chapter 3 verses 7 through 10. The decree of the King of Nineveh and his Nobles. What it teaches us about genuine repentance.
Jonah is a one-of-a-kind prophet, displaying God's amazing ability to use sinful men in His service. Were it not for some historical parallels and the Lord Jesus himself mentioning "the sign of Jonah" three times in the gospels (in the mouth of 2 or 3 witnesses it will be established), it would be easy to believe this was "a whale of a tale," merely a literary fiction. But it cannot be that. The sum of God's word is truth (Psalm 119:160). There is a very important reason that this book is in the canon, and we must not run from the truth of God's word. The principle established in Exodus 23 was for Jonah, as it is for all of God's people in all times and places: “Behold, I send an angel before you to guard you on the way and to bring you to the place that I have prepared. Pay careful attention to him and obey his voice; do not rebel against him, for he will not pardon your transgression, for my name is in him. “But if you carefully obey his voice and do all that I say, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries. Exodus 23:20–22 The Angel of YHWH, Malachi, is God's presence with us - Immanuel, the Word Incarnate - and we are to listen and obey. In fact, as Jenny and I have just learned from studying Hebrew, "listening to the voice" and obeying are one and the same in that language! Christians, when we are honest we are all a bit too much like Jonah. "All we like sheep have gone astray." Let us rejoice in God's mercy to all, and be the feet that bring the joyful gospel of peace to all mankind. Here is a fantastic summary (I learned a great deal from it!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLIabZc0O4c
Jonah, the reluctant prophet, was called to prophesy against the pagan capital of the world, Nineveh. He attempted to shun the assignment until God explained it to him a little more clearly! His message to Nineveh:40 days and you get yours! The greatest miracle in the book of Jonah was Nineveh's repentance, within the allotted 40 days, on speculation! They reasoned that maybe, if they repented, God might change His mind. They did. And He did. A century later, Nahum was sent to ask them to repent and Nineveh failed. Judgment resulted. Obadiah prophesied against Israel's enemies. His book provides insights into the 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ and why some countries will apparently escape the rule of the Antichrist. These are three small books of the Bible that contribute a critical perspective for all of us. This study contains 8 hours of verse by verse teachings. Copyright © 10-01-2010

Our God uses people to reach people. From the very beginning, He has chosen a group to go out and bless the world. But the Bible is full of humans failing to live up to this divine calling. One of the most iconic and ironic examples is the prophet Jonah. Join us this Sunday to see how even polytheistic, pagan sailors reflected God's heart more than Jonah did.
Having compassion can be difficult when you feel like someone has done you or others wrong and they don't get what you think they "deserve". In the message from Pastor Bryan, Jonah has no compassion for God's people. One message that holds so much truth, is that God is a loving and compassion God.
Do you ever feel like you've messed up too many times? Has the fear set in that you've used up too much of God's grace, and too many of His "second chances"?If that's you, we want you to know that there is no distance that God won't cross to win you back, and welcome you home!In this message, Pastor Aaron breaks down Jonah Chapter 3 to look at how when we repent, and turn to God, He is faithful to relent from His anger, and give us the grace to try again. Not grace that just "barely" accepts us, but a grace that boldly loves us, beyond our wildest imaginations!
How many times do you wish you had been given a second chance, or have an opportunity for a due over. Well, in the message we hear from Pastor Bryan, we see a God of second chances. God doesn't ever tell us that's it. When we confess we have done wrong, he is always willing to give a second chance.

Have you ever felt so far from God that you feel he doesn't hear your prayer? As we continue our series in Jonah, we learn no matter where we are in life God hears our prayers. Pastor Bryan shares Jonah's prayer as he cries out in repentance to God. Even when Jonah thinks he has hit rock bottom and there is no way out, God hears him and sees him.
Raise your hand if you have heard the story of Jonah and the Whale? I thought I knew the whole story of Jonah but the story is so much deeper than just a man in the belly of a fish. Take a listen to the message from Pastor Bryan.

In this episode, Sally and Curtis dive into Jonah Chapter 4, exploring the prophet's reaction to God's mercy towards Nineveh. Despite witnessing the city's repentance and God's compassion, Jonah becomes angry, revealing his struggle with justice, fairness, and personal comfort. Through an in-depth discussion, they examine the contrast between Jonah's limited perspective and God's boundless grace. The episode also unpacks the significance of the leafy plant that God provides and then removes, using it as a lesson on misplaced priorities and spiritual blindness. Ultimately, this episode highlights the patience of God—not only towards Nineveh but also towards Jonah—as He seeks to guide His people towards repentance and understanding.
In this episode of Arise+Abide, Sally and Curtis delve into Jonah Chapter 3, exploring the remarkable story of Nineveh's repentance. Following Jonah's deliverance from the belly of the great fish, God gives him a second chance to deliver His message to the people of Nineveh. The hosts reflect on Jonah's obedience, the simplicity and power of his prophecy, and the profound response of the Ninevites, from the king to the common people. They discuss themes of humility, repentance, and God's eagerness to show mercy to those who turn from their wicked ways. This episode challenges listeners to examine their own lives: Are we stepping down from the thrones we've placed ourselves on and putting God first? Tune in for an inspiring conversation about obedience, transformation, and the boundless compassion of God. Follow-Up Questions: How might the speakers' insights on obedience and humility apply to the listeners' own lives and faith journeys? [07:08] What other examples from the Bible or personal experiences could the speakers draw upon to further illustrate the themes of God's compassion and mercy? [10:51] How can the listeners actively seek to make God's character known to those around them, as the speakers emphasize is the purpose of God's interactions with His people?
In this episode of Arise+Abide, hosts Sally and Curtis dive into Jonah Chapter 1, exploring the prophet's dramatic response to God's call. Reflecting on Jonah's attempt to flee from his mission to Nineveh, they examine themes of God's mercy, human disobedience, and divine purpose. Through the lens of Jonah's journey, the hosts discuss relatable struggles with surrendering to God's will, the transformative power of repentance, and the unexpected ways God uses challenging situations to reveal His character. They also explore the parallels between Jonah's story and God's larger redemptive plan, highlighting how even in disobedience, God's grace shines through to bring others to faith. This thought-provoking episode invites listeners to consider their own callings, the importance of obedience, and the assurance that God's plans prevail—even in the storms of life.
